hi, snap thunderbird 155.0-1 ubuntu 24.04 keeps asking for passwords of all email accounts after upgrading thunderbird. all passwords are correct and they were not changed. the issue started today after thunderbird was upgraded to 155.0-1. this new version seems to have touched on oauth: https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/155.0/releasenotes/

What’s New

- S/MIME popup shows signature, digest, encryption algorithms and key sizes

- Default address book for manually added contacts configurable with mail.addr_book.add_item_default_uri

- Enterprise policy DisableQRExport can disable QR export

- OAuth add-ons can override built-in settings for selected domains and hostnames

- Manual account config streamlined with Exchange, Graph, and custom OAuth support

- Custom OAuth support for IMAP and SMTP servers

- PKCE and external browser fields added to custom OAuth settings

- Enterprise policy DisableExperimentalFeatures for disabling experimental features

any idea how to fix this? thanks

I attempted to get into an account and my password did not appear. When I attempted to get into my password manager, it has disappeared completely and I have no access to that information

I needed to change my AOL password and when I went to change it in Thunderbird I accidentally deleted the entire entry instead of just the password. Now I don't see a mechanism to reenter that information. I thought it might ask that if I simply tried to reconnect to the AOL mail, but I get the attached when I try even though that is the information I use to sign into AOL

Thoughts?

Thanks, John

Hello For the past few days, every time I launch Thunderbird, I’m asked to re-enter my account password. I do this every time after deleting the saved passwords in the settings, ticking the ‘Use the password manager...’ box, and restarting Thunderbird. But nothing seems to work. Do you have a solution? Thank you. Kind regards.

I'm trying to resolve password issues. I fear that I might lose access in T-bird as I have through my browser.

T-Bird presently works to receive e-mail at two addresses: [redacted]@pacbell.net and at [redacted]@pacbell.net. It won't let me send email from [redacted]@pacbell.net.

None of my "they did work in the past" passwords allow me to log in with yahoo or AT&T

I want to use the same p- words with t-bird and yahoo and AT&T

...even though the settings are exactly the same as the other laptops everyone in the group. Why are these bugs not disclosed ? One set of problems exchanged for another -- reminds me of Microsoft 'upgrades'. Whatever happened to the post about Addon icons spontaneously disappearing ? Another release bug ? And then there was the "Bookmarks vertical spacing not optimized", which promulgated a response soliciting me to, "...describe the problem...". Quite a unique experience. For us.

I changed my yahoo password and can longer access this account in Thunderbird.

Now when I sign in to Thunderbird I get 'Edge To Many requests'

Unfortunately I deleted the yahoo user name and password in Thunderbird Password/ Saved Logins thinking Yahoo might automatically ask for my new password when re-starting Thunderbird

Can somebody help please.

Many thanks

I have used Thunderbird for years. Suddenly it asks for my email account password every time I send an email message. What is the problem? The passwords for my email accounts have always been stored in my configuration and it never asked for them. Very annoying.

Bonjour, Lorsque je me connecte, j'ai un message que me dit : User is authenticated but not connected et ceci sur toutes mes boites mails. De plus, suite à un changement d'ordinateur mes mots de passe sont visibles aves des chiffres et des lettres credential redacted (see https://github.com/thunderbird/aaq-scraper/issues/15 ) Je ne peux pas voir mes mots de passe enregistrés Je ne peux donc pas me connecter à mes boites mails car les mots de passe ne sont pas valides A savoir que je suis sur certaines boites mail sur @outlook.com (anciennement dbmail)

Pourriez-vous m'aider à débloquer le problème car je suis très embêtée Par avance merci et bonne soirée PS : Si je supprime l'application et que je l'installe de nouveau, vais-je perdre tout l'historique (dossiers, agendas, contacts, etc ...)

When I highlighted the password, it gave me only choices to edit or copy password and the only way I know how to delete a password is to click, "Remove All" and now the "Show Password" button is grayed out.

When transferring Thunderbird Profile between PCs passwords are not transferred. Transferring Profiles between two Windows 11 PCs ( both are the same version ) the email details are transferred but no passwords are. I followed the instructions found on the forums to transfer profile between PCs

As of a few days ago, popup boxes have been appearing where Thunderbird is asking for passwords for my email addresses (I access emails from four different addresses with Thunderbird). Sometimes I will get the same popup box for a specific email address appearing several times over a few minutes. I reinstalled Thunderbird hoping that would help, but, while the popups are less frequent, they are still happening.

Also, while I have Thunderbird set up to check for new emails every 10 minutes and to download them automatically, it is only downloading emails when I shut down the program and restart it. "Get New Message For:" does not work. I know that new emails are not being automatically downloaded as I see that there are new ones at the website of my ISP.

Most of the solutions I have seen are not current, and reference settings I cannot find in my version. I have tried deleting and reentering the passwords by clicking on Saved Passwords in settings, but that did not help. Any suggestions?

I am shifting over to TB from Windows Live Mail. I have installed TB Ver 115.16.2 on 7 computers successfully (Win 7, 10 and 11) over the past year. But on one Win 7 computer TB will not save the password. Usually TB asks for the Password during set-up. But here it asked for it in a pop-up box. Yes, I entered the correct password. Yes, I said "save with Password manager." But here it keeps asking for it, over and over. At one point TB connected to the POP download server, just long enough to download all the incoming emails, but then quit connecting. It won't connect to the SMTP server. The port numbers for POP and SMTP are correct and the security settings are correct. I've done a lot of web searching. Most sites say that profile files logins.json and key4.db may be corrupted. I disabled them (by renaming) and copied those two files from another computer on which the same Thunderbird version works properly on the same mail server. Same thing - TB still keeps asking for the POP server password. I just deleted TB (uninstalled, and deleted all the appdata directories, and verified there were no lingering registry keys using a list shown on Spiceworks). I'll next reinstall, but don't have much confidence that it will work. Thanks.
